Is anyone getting Dead Space 3?

Who has played the previous Dead Space titles?

I have really enjoyed 1 & 2 and really looking forward to 3.

Won't buy it on principle alone, let alone because it looks like they're dumping the whole survival horror aspect in an attempt to appeal to the action crowd. They're including micro-transactions in the crafting of new weapons.

It just pisses me off that they're charging full price and then putting a freemium service on top of that. If the game were free, it would be justified, hell I'm playing the hell out of Planetside 2 at the moment.

While I acknowledge my restraint from buying it won't actually do anything, as there will be hoardes of people who will, i really am loathe to give them my money for reprehensible business practices.

Not sure what the problem is Envy, based on your logic, you will not be buying any new games... ever again. They all release DLCs, some even before the game is released.

I sure hope the game is playable without forking out extra cash, the would just suck.

I'm not talking about DLC, i'm talking about putting micro-transactions into the game itself, i.e pay to win. Like Farmville.

Still not sure how that is all that different... unless you can not play the game without spending more money, then I could see what you mean.

NFS has DLC contect to unlock cars, Dirt has DLC to unock tracks and cars, Some 'shoot em ups' have DLC to give you special weapons... etc. Maybe a DLC to give you a special suit that gives more protection...all of which allow you to progress through the game faster.

I am not trying to discredit what you are saying, just merly trying to understand your argument.

Loved 1 and 2, have at least 10 playthroughs on each. Definitely getting 3.


I preordered the Limited Edition from JB Hi Fi a few months ago but they called last week and said that only EB will have the limited edition, so to make up for it they're going to give me the standard edition for freeeee! Very Happy
